To find the answer, we can set up a proportion. If Jamal is averaging 8 toys every 5 days, then we can say that he averages 8/5 toys per day.
Let's set up the proportion:
(8 toys / 5 days) = (75 toys / x days)
Now we can cross-multiply:
8x = 75 * 5
8x = 375
Divide both sides by 8 to solve for x:
x = 375 / 8
x = 46.875
Rounding to the nearest whole number of days, it will take Jamal approximately 47 days (option 1) to fill an order of 75 toys.
